No One to Blame But Ourselves

We have no one to blame for our suffering condition here in the material existence but ourselves. Instead of trying to put the blame on others we should therefore accept the full responsibility for our present predicament on our own shoulders. Taking this honest position will be the first step on our becoming liberated from the hell we have been going through since time immemorial. We are actually, factually the eternal servants of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is what we have always been. But we most foolishly made the mistake of trying to enjoy separately from Krishna. So now all we have really have to do is admit our foolish mistake and beg Lord Krishna to allow us back into full absorption in His loving service in all times, places, and circumstances with our every thought, word, and deed. This simple adjustment of consciousness will liberate us from all misery for all of eternity and enable us to always dance internally and externally in total ecstasy in the unlimited bliss of Krishna consciousness. So what are waiting for? Let's do it right now!!!

The Little Sparrow Who Conquered the Ocean

Image
In his purport to Bhagavad-gita, Chapter 6, Text 24 Srila Prabhupada wonderfully teaches us the power of determinations by telling us the story of the little sparrow who conquered the ocean: "As for determination, one should follow the example of the sparrow who lost her eggs in the waves of the ocean. A sparrow laid her eggs on the shore of the ocean, but the big ocean carried away the eggs on its waves. The sparrow became very upset and asked the ocean to return her eggs. The ocean did not even consider her appeal. So the sparrow decided to dry up the ocean. She began to pick out the water in her small beak, and everyone laughed at her for her impossible determination. The news of her activity spread, and at last Garuda, the gigantic bird carrier of Lord Visnu, heard it. He became compassionate toward his small sister bird, and so he came to see the sparrow. Garuda was very pleased by the determination of the small sparrow, and he promised to help. Thus Garuda at once asked t

Heart Melting Reunion with Amarendra and Gayatri

Image
On Friday 26 June 2015 I was blessed with the greatest good fortune of meeting with two of the dearest devotees of my entire life, His Grace Amarendra Prabhu and his good wife, Srimati Gayatri devi dasi. I am eternally indebted to these great souls for how much they helped me in my spiritual life when I was a young devotee. When I was young brahmacari monk in 1973 I joined with the two of them in Gainesville, Florida. We were a three person preaching center, and they were just like a mother and father to me. I had so many wonderful Krishna conscious experiences in their association that I can hardly begin to describe them here. But at least may it suffice for me to say for now that Gayatri taught me what it means to be a soft-hearted devotee of the Lord and she gave me my first cooking lesson, teaching me how to make cauliflower pakoras, and Amarendra taught me the art of how to preach strongly, intelligently, and coolly to defeat opposing arguments. Recently Gayatri almost died. But
